Texas Thunder will have the largest group of retro birds I have seen in one place. I want to take advantage of that by viewing and discussing some of the mods people have done that are not often seen at smaller events. Who will be at Texas Thunder with the following? I want to be sure and track you down if you have any of these.
1) Dash trim kit - preferably a wood pattern in full black cockpit
2) OEM vinyl trunk liner 2W6Z-6311600-AA. No longer available from Ford but I want to see what they look like in case I ever come across one for sale. (Hint - I am in the market for one)
3) Rocker panel insert - not the chrome overlay. I know I have seen one on a web site somewhere but I cannot find it now. The panel is painted to match body color and it fills the gap under the rocker panel from wheel to wheel.
4) Retractable front license plate - mainly just curiosity on my part
5) Brighter bulbs in the driving lights - There are several bulbs people have used to increase brightness. Would like to see what you have done.
6) Brighter headlights - What bulb did you use and are you happy with it. Would like to see how much brighter they are from stock
7) Hard boot cover - Another curiosity item on my part. I have only seen one style (flat 2 piece) that I would be interested in but I would like to see some in person
8) Under hood light - Since Ford did not see fit to give us one, I intend to add something myself but I am interested to see what others may have already done
9) Anything else that you think I must see. I lean primarily toward items that are functional in nature
I already have some of the more common mods on mine but I also have some "less common" mods as well if anyone wants to see them. This includes the in-dash Nav system as well as a trailer hitch. With a little luck, I might have WeaponX COP's (along with Bosch Platinum+4 plugs) installed in time for the trip and I can report on what I think about them.
